comprises a large region of central
British Columbia
, and lies between the
Cariboo

Monashee Mountains
on the east, and the
Hazelton Mountains

Coast Mountains
and

on the west. The continuation of the plateau into the
United States
is known there as the

. The Interior Plateau is
not
part of the

physiographic division.
